x = 1

Explanation:

6x + 3(2 - 3x) = 3 - 2 (x-1)

We can solve this equation by isolating x.

We can first expand the brackets.

6x + 6 - 9x = 3 - 2x + 2

Now we can use algebra to isolate x

6x - 9x = 3 - 2x + 2- 6

6x - 9x + 2x = 3 + 2- 6

6x - 9x + 2x = 5 - 6

6x - 9x + 2x = -1

- 3x + 2x = -1

- 1x = -1

We cancel out the negative signs.

cancel(-) 1x = cancel(-)1

1x = 1
